Nottingham Forest head coach Nuno Espirito Santo has serious concerns over his side’s lack of activity ahead of the new Premier League campaign. Yet he has repeatedly raised alarm bells over their preparedness. In an astonishingly frank interview in May with Sky Sports, he laid bare the “huge issues” that are caused by an absence of new signings. He feels these problems can deeply affect the club’s success. This revelation came on Friday, 15 August 2025, at 14:30 UK time.
Espirito Santo’s frustrations reflect a growing urgency within the club’s management as they approach the new season. He emphasized that without new players, Nottingham Forest could struggle to compete effectively in the league. His words ring true at a very important time when just about every team in MLS is shoring up their squads with plenty of new signings.
In a recent BT Sport interview, the Salford City FC head coach was left frustrated after his club couldn’t land any new players. “We’re in need of players!” highlighting the urgent need for reinforcements before their first game of the season. The coach thinks the quality isn’t there yet, depth isn’t there yet in this current squad. He doesn’t think they’re prepared to meet the challenges of the Premier League.
Espirito Santo’s remarks were part of a broader discussion regarding the team’s strategy and readiness for the season. He further admitted that although potential signings are on the way, they have little time left to conclude these agreements. The mounting deadline with the opening game of the season approaching quickly only adds to that pressure.
The head coach’s comments have sparked discussions among fans and analysts alike, who are now questioning the club’s transfer strategy. Many supporters are eager to see how the management will respond to Espirito Santo’s call for action and whether they can deliver the necessary reinforcements before the transfer window closes.
Nottingham Forest looks forward to its first home match of the season. For supporters, the priority is on how seriously the club will fight to address these issues. The stakes couldn’t be higher! That’s because the results of their first few games can hugely impact how the entire season goes.
